Do the exterior mirrors fold automatically , or with an electronic action, or do you have to manually do ot outside the car. There are posts from Europe that in Europe the mirrors have this feature.
My garage is narrow so I wish I had this feature

I wonder about this as well. In the case of the Ranger pickups, it is a trim level issue only on the Lariat models (at least in 2019). Other Ford vehicles have it as well. Alas, the Mustang bean counters have ruled supreme once again!

It is my understanding that some non-us mustangs (not electric) include a larger mirror assembly and a mandated electronic fold function. U.S. spec models feature the manual fold function.

I confirm that in Europe the mirrors do fold. Very useful here!

Can also confirm that mirrors fold automatically on Australian models when using fob or door handle locking. Also have manual override below mirror controls. Presume this is standard worldwide.

Other day in the car wash one of those brushes was powerful enough to move my side mirror backwards, but easily fixed by pushing it back. There's a raised part that holds it in place when you push it inward.
Now I'm wondering if they actually can be pushed inward b/c they seem to be able to move similar to my RAM trucks towing mirrors.

The lesson here is never take your Mustang through any carwash with brushes

Brushes do better than touchless, but I rarely use brush washes unless its real dirty. Some people say it'll leave swirls in the clear coat, but haven't noticed any. Best bet is $3-4 at a hand-held spray wash bin. Plus, it's easy to push the mirror back in place.
Going to check to see if they do fold in for future washes.

Mine fold, not sure if they're bigger than US ones. If they are, I'll gloat.
It doesn't make a lot of difference when they're folded though.

Our Mustang's mirrors fold in manually. I'd imagine that's standard on the US/Canadian models.
